    Random BMW I8 and DMC photo shoot

    You can use the Google translate tool to read the article as it is in German. Nothing groundbreaking, but interesting photos.

    Both beauties! One of my favorite used car sites (I recommend you book-mark it) has one of those BMerz for sale for anyone with a craving for one and a loose $169K laying around...

    I am ashamed of my German countrymen from Autobild, which is claiming to be a relative respected car magazine...well, "Bild" is not really a respected paper in Germany but everybody seems to like their stile. It is like "The Sun" in UK. "Autobild" is their car focused issue. Putting a typo right into the headline is very bad. The "DeLorean MDC-12"...really?

    The way I see it, if you're gonna drive around in a car, why not do it with some style?

    I'll be dammed! I saw that BMW loaded on the top of a double decker car transport on the German autobahn on November 29th when driving north the A69.
    I didn't get to photograph it cause I was doing 130mph but I was impressed from the lines that BMW had. It was still wrapped in protective foil.

    Hehe, not really. "DMC" always stays "DMC". We are not as crazy as the French with translating EVERYTHING. German is pretty bad when it comes to protecting its language. French are way more strict, which is good to an extent. We formed a new language called "Denglish", which is a cross between German (Deutsch) and English.
    Ever asked a German person what a "Handy" is. Although it sounds like something dirty from the street, it is actually a cell phone. Germans made this word up, which does not exist in English. But it sounds "soooo coool!" according to them. I have to facepalm when listening to my own countrymen.
